Welcome

Welcome to Classic Books and Ephemera under the proprietorship of Dr. Craig W. Horle and Laurie M. Wolfe. We have been in the bookselling trade for more than a decade, and together have over a half-century experience in working with books and manuscripts. We have a large and expanding stock, focusing primarily, but by no means exclusively, on 16th- to mid-19th-century books in English, French, and German in the fields of history, travel, and the arts, and children's books; late 19th- and early 20th-century military prints and postcards; and manuscripts, deeds, maps, and printed ephemera of all periods and disciplines.

If you want to know the minute we add something in your field of interest, enter your email address under Topic Notification on the left side of the screen, click on the category in the pull-down menu, and click Add Notification. You'll receive an email notifying you whenever we add an item in that category.

We offer an institutional discount of 15% for orders up to $100 and 18% for orders over $100. We also offer a discount of 15% to bookdealers. This discount is available for orders through our website only.

We are always looking to purchase books and manuscripts, and welcome all inquiries. We are members of the Independent Online Booksellers Association (IOBA).
